"It doesn't matter who votes; it matters who counts the votes".

I am convinced that the results of the elections have not much to do with the votes cast. Stalin had a point.

    If memory serves me correctly, George Soros owns a major share in a Canadian company that tallies a large number of the electronic voting machines throughout the Eastern US. This was an article that was published prior to the election in 2008. I was scared back then. Since then we had the 2012 elections where David Axelrod stated 'Obama is going to win this election - I guarantee it!"
    Who is counting the votes?

    What part of Robbie's post did you not understand?
    Your question strikes me as one Eric Holder would ask while restating his guileful garbage about requiring a voter to show a picture ID as being racist.
    It's damn obvious why Dems in high places dislike voter IDs.

    They better perfect their electronic vote counting fraud machines before a viable third party candidate gains enough steam...

    Your problem is that the density of populace in the cities is very high, while the normal people in the rural areas is much less so, and decreasing all the time.

    See, I don't accept the assertion that "the populace is nearly 50/50 split ideologically". I know the media works hard to present that as fact.

    I would have laughed at you 20 years ago, but sadly that appears to be true in the USSA today also.

    I agree that the counting is probably on the up-and-up...except for the Dade County recount during the Bush vs. Gore election. I still remember the "hanging chad" report, and the Democrat vote counter that was found with a mouthful of chads!
    I always wished that I had gone ahead and printed up a van full of bumper stickers that said: Hey Gore--EAT CHAD AND DIE

    Well for the most part I think that our vote counting is still relatively honest, but those casting the votes have been suspect for 50 yrs (remember the large cemetery turn-out for Kennedy in Chicago). Now we have illegals voting, and voters casting votes in multiple districts, both due to lax voter verification. We in Wisconsin find numerous bus loads of people with Illinois license plates parked at our polling locations. Couple that with the early voting where people vote in the name of others in different districts and you get a margin of fraud that is significant, particularly in the current era where the populace is nearly 50/50 split ideologically.
